In 1996 my husband and I had been trying to get pregnant, we saw different doctors and we felt that they didn’t necessarily know what was going on but they tried different things that really didn’t work with us as a couple or with me as a person and that was very exhausting.
There are many reasons why somebody can’t have children and sometimes they can be understandable from the medical standpoint and many times there is a lot of guesses, maybe it’s this or maybe that. In our case, there was no real explanation.
In 1996 I was reading and studying about the many benefits of essential oils at the same time I was introducing aromatherapy and essential oils to the Ecuadorian market and I was very eager to learn more about the different benefits it had.
Here are the different benefits of aromatherapy and how they applied to my case:

Aromatherapy can be help to calm down, relax, live in the moment. ~ This is such an important factor, because when a couple is going through an infertility problem it is very difficult to just relax and enjoy.

There are certain essential oils that can help men and women balance their hormonal and reproductive systems.~ After years of conventional fertility treatments, we sure needed some help in that department!

Whenever essential oils come into your body they can stimulate the different ducts of drainage. Some will stimulate the skin, some others will stimulate your kidneys or the lungs. Whenever they come into your body they will leave and release or take toxins with them. ~ After four years of toxins, it was important for us to remove them.

My story begins in 1996. My husband and I had been trying to get pregnant for 4 years. We were trying to have babies and had gone through lots and lots of fertility treatments. We didn’t do the invitro-fertilization as we thought that would be the last resort. Basically, we had decided already for about 2 or 3 months that we wouldn’t do anything else to try and get pregnant. That is a very difficult process, because you see different doctors and all of them see you not really as a person, but as a uterus or ovaries or as sexual organs more than as a person. They work only on the physiology of the infertility problem. In my experience the doctors didn’t necessarily know what was going on but they tried different things that really didn’t work with us as a couple or with me as a person and that was very exhausting. You may have experienced something similar.
